Duke Nukem 3D for Windows
A new port of the Duke Nukem 3D source code (along with executables) is now available for Windows, though you'll need some of the files from the shareware or retail version of the original game to play it. Duke was one of my favorite online games, and the first, I believe, that I played on the Internet with others (previously, we had played DOOM, DOOM II, Heretic, and other games via a LAN at the school I was working at in the mid-1990's). It featured a cool-looking psuedo-3D environment, a good story line, a smack-talking lead character, and more alien scumbags that you could shake a stick at. I'm busy finding my original Duke 3D software so I can play it again on Windows (yeah, I keep almost everything), but it looks like a faithful port.
